My 1st birthday

I am 1! Finally! Yep, I made it to the special day but my party had to be postponed until the next day because Dad had rugby. Us kids had a picnic while the others had a BBQ lunch. Mum made me a pussycat cake which I wanted to keep eating and eating, yummy. I got loads and loads of awesome presents, thank you very much everyone! Mum says I am spoilt. Our new kitten Pearl loves playing with my new toys too.
This is me on my birthday watching Dad play rugby.

And here's me in my new Police car. Uncle Dave better not speed anymore otherwise I'll catch him!

In the North Island now

We have now moved up to the North Island. I have been doing heaps of cool things like going to swimming lessons and playcentre. It's really hot up here and I have to have a swim in the paddling pool that Nana and Grandad bought me, just about every day! I am getting really good at feeding myself too.
I can now walk, with a few stumbles here and there, but getting better at it every day.
I am looking forward to my 1st birthday coming up very shortly :)

Uncle Dave and Aunty Tegan's wedding

Today Uncle Dave and Aunty Tegan got married. Aunty Tegan looked so beautiful and Uncle Dave looked cool too. Mum made me get all dressed up and wear a stupid thing on my head but I was good and left it on for most of the time. After the ceremony, they had a big party in the Marquee on Nana and Grandad's lawn.

Merry Christmas

Merry Christmas everyone. I had an awesome day opening all my presents. When I was giving the presents under the tree out to the rest of the family, it was like "One for you, three for me!"

Thanks to everyone for my cool new stuff :)

Trip to Australia

I had a really awesome two weeks in Australia, visiting the theme parks and zoos. It was so hot that Mum let me get wet all the time :) At night time though, it was hard to sleep because I was hot and I would wake up really early in the morning. Sometimes, Dad would get up and take me for a walk while Mum had a sleep in.
Some of the cool things I got to do was play with a Kangaroo....

Get my ear nibbled by a baby goat........
Float in the pool in my new floaty thing.......
And play on the beach with Mum and Dad :)
Thanks Grandad, Nana, Uncle Dave, Aunty Tegan, Uncle Ryan, Aunty Billie, Uncle Kieran, Aunty Charlie and cousin Lily for a really cool holiday, lets do it again soon!!

Uncle Ryan's 21st party

On Saturday we went up to Christchurch because it was Uncle Ryan's 21st party (his actual birthday is on Monday). Dad had already gone up on Friday night so he could go paintball shooting with everyone on Saturday morning. He got some bruises from being shot! Then in the evening we all had a BBQ and drinks (which Mum said I wasn't allowed). Nana made Uncle Ryan an awesome cake with his favourite cow on it which he blew the candles out and we all sang Happy Birthday. This is a photo Nana took of Uncle Ryan, Uncle Dave, Mum and Uncle Kieran.

Busy week

I have had a very busy week this week. I've been learning all sorts of new tricks. Now that I can crawl, I am getting into so much mischief! This week I have learned to sit up and get back down all by myself (there's been a few crashes), and I can pull myself up onto my feet on the furniture but then I lose my balance and crash. Sometimes Mum catches me but sometimes I bump my head and it hurts :( And yesterday, I got my first tooth! I've been trying it out on Mum's shoulder but she jumps and says "ouch, don't bite Mummy, Georgie". Mum said she will try to take a photo of my tooth and put it on here so everyone can see it, but here is a photo of me standing up all by myself.

And here it is! My very first tooth......
